Could have spent the money more wisely.........

Rating: 6/10 (31 August 2005)

Movie is classic Michael Bay but can someone explain to me that after spending probably $50m creating the world of 2019, why would be driving around in an old style Land Rover Discovery, Mazda RX8 and Chrysler Crossfires? The movie shows levitating Am-Trak trains, subways in the sky and flying motor bikes, yet apart from one Chrysler prototype, all cars are from 2003! If you look at car design in the real world it has come a long way in 16 yrs. Surely the cars of 2019 would have done too.
It's a pity that with all the budget, they forgot this little detail and thought that the public would not notice.
At least with Minority Report they tried to create a complete future world rather than simply cityscapes and odd pieces of technology. May be Michael should have spent his MSN, Nokia, Chrysler, Ford and Cisco product placement money a little wiser........
